A couple nights ago, I kicked the cat out of the bathroom (his two favorite bathroom activities are “jump on the toilet” and “play with the toilet paper”…neither of which is much fun to deal with while you are doing your business".
A few minutes later, I hear a thump, and the lights go out.
I walk outside. Kitty is looking all sweet and innocent waiting by the door.
It was the cat. He’s been able to turn out the bathroom lights for a while (He jumps up and wraps his paws around the switch- it’s just a standard switch), but I always figured he thought it was a toy. But no. He knows what it does. He turned them off out of spite! He’s done this a couple times since- only when I kick him out of the bathroom, or if I am taking a shower and I don’t respond to him.
My wife had a cat that would do the same thing. Our problem is the light switch for the bathroom is outside of the bath. Everyone in the house got their chance to learn how to wipe in the dark.
Rotary or sideways is your only code acceptable option. Single point control switches have to be oriented so UP is ON per the NEC.
I’d make amends with your kitty, show him love, give catnip and reason with him. Respect the intelligence he’s demonstrated, as he’s a quick learner! Either that or start checking the history on your browser for sites like kittyoffortune.com
Does Radio Shack still sell those light switch remote controls?
That would solve the dark problem, whomsoever turns the outside switch.
Is that like “whilst”?
My furry bastard flushed the toilet while I was in the shower the other day.
Just wait, you’ll see. As soon as he realizes that you’re too big to lose your way in the dark and drown in the bowl, he’ll come up with something more lethal.
